Rohingya Refugees

Drones Attack Rohingya Fleeing Myanmar

For decades, millions of Rohingya refugees have sought safety in Bangladesh and neighbouring countries, fleeing persecution. Sadly, history is repeating itself. 

On August 5th, 2024, while escaping violence in Myanmar’s western Rakhine state, hundreds of Rohingya were killed by drone strikes as they waited to cross the border into Bangladesh. The attack, amidst ongoing clashes between junta troops and rebel forces, is one of the deadliest assaults on civilians in Rakhine state, with reports indicating over 200 fatalities.

"One of the Most Persecuted Minorities in the World"

The Rohingya Muslims have long been subjected to severe discrimination, with the UN recognising them as "one of the most persecuted minorities in the world." Every day, children and families face the threat of death, whether by drowning as they attempt to flee the violence or by remaining in dangerous conditions. 

They are counting on YOU.

Now taking refuge in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh—the largest refugee camp in the world—the Rohingya are entirely dependent on humanitarian aid for survival. They rely on this support for protection, food, water, shelter, healthcare, and other basic necessities. 

By donating to our Rohingya appeal, you can provide a lifeline to a vulnerable refugee/family.
